Criticism Spotlight
"Contradiction #1: Plan of Salvation 'Devised' After the Fall"   Ellen White apparently puts the "devising" of the plan of salvation both before Creation and after the fall. Our critic maintains that the "after the fall" statements contradict the Bible. We examine similar "after the fall" statements found in the Bible, as well as dictionary definitions for "devise."

Insightful Info
Zinc Stored in the Brain   Back in 1870, Ellen White wrote of a substance in the brain that was needed to nourish the system. A century later, scientists confirmed that zinc, which the brain contains a lot of, is indeed an important nutrient for humans. They have also confirmed that zinc plays a part in many digestive and metabolic processes. Lucky guess? Coincidence? Inspired? You decide.

Her Beliefs
Hell & Eternal Torment   Ellen White most certainly believed in hell, but she also firmly believed in John 3:16. For this reason and others, her understanding of hell was more like that of Isaac Watts and seventeenth-century General Baptists than that of John Calvin. See what you think of her views.

Quote for Today (How we select)
    "But how little of the result of the world's noblest work is in this life manifest to the doer! How many toil unselfishly and unweariedly for those who pass beyond their reach and knowledge! Parents and teachers lie down in their last sleep, their lifework seeming to have been wrought in vain; they know not that their faithfulness has unsealed springs of blessing that can never cease to flow; only by faith they see the children they have trained become a benediction and an inspiration to their fellow men, and the influence repeat itself a thousandfold."
(Education 305, 306)

Fulfilled or Fallacy?
The Tsunami of 2004 & Sunday Breaking   Ellen White wrote in 1884 that people would blame tidal waves on breaking the Sunday sabbath. In February 2005, a Presbyterian minister named John MacLeod made quite a few waves by suggesting that the horrific tsunami of December 26, 2004, was a judgment of God against Sunday breaking.

About Her Visions
"I Held Her Thus with My Hand About Ten Minutes, Long Enough for Her to Suffocate"   Five more share what they saw regarding her not breathing while in vision. Daniel Bourdeau describes how he put his hand over Ellen White's mouth and pinched her nose shut for ten minutes. Yet this did not affect her in the least.

Christ's Object Lessons   Chapter 4: Tares. " 'Another parable put He forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field; but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.' 'The field,' Christ said, 'is the ..."
